Symbols

Finding all of the Symbols hidden throughout Journey will not only reward you with the TranscendenceTrophy, but will give you access to an incredibly powerful white robe with a regenerating scarf.

Intro

Symbol 1

The first of the Symbols you'll collect is immediately in front of you as soon as you begin the game. Grab it to gain your first scarf extension.

Symbol 2

Once you reach the bottom of the valley, grab the Symbol that sits on the small platform.

Symbol 3

The final Symbol of the Intro is about halfway up the central platform. Grab it to earn your 3rd scarf extension.

Broken Bridge

Symbol 1

You'll spot the first Symbol of the area straight ahead from the starting point. It's just above where the area's lone Ancient Glyph is. You may need to collect the other Symbols in the area first in order to have enough scarf power to reach the landing.

Symbol 2

From the start, head northwest to spot this Symbol that's hidden behind the far wall underneath a sand waterfall.

Symbol 3

From the start of the Broken Bridge, head immediately left to spot this Symbol underneath a pile of rocks.

Desert

Symbol 1

From the start, head straight towards the mountain for quite a bit of time. Before you reach the sandstorm, keep your eye on the mountain until you spot a pair of lights shoot out into the sky. One will land on a ruined wall at the bottom of a valley. This one is a Symbol. If you backtrack and follow the other light, you'll be able to track down the Hidden Desert Flower and earn one of the game's Trophies.

Symbol 2

From the beginning of the area, head right and keep walking until you spot a small set of ruins that house a Symbol.

Symbol 3

Head along the left-hand side of the level until you spot the ruins that house the second Ancient Glyph. From here, just head towards the mountain over one sand dune to spot the tower that houses the Symbol.

Symbol 4

Once you make it to the top of the tower in the middle of the sandstorm, look around the left-hand side of the shrine to spot another Symbol.

Sunken City

Symbol 1

As soon as you start sliding down the hill, stay to the left. After you've gone through the first 5 arches, turn towards the middle of the path and enter the ruined hallway to grab the first Symbol of the area.

Symbol 2

After you go through the first sand waterfall, you'll be shot over a large chasm. Immediately turn to the right and float down to the glowing Symbol that resides on a small platform.

Symbol 3

During the second sliding sequence, stay in the middle of the path. About halfway down, you'll spot a sharp rock near the center of the path that juts out like a ramp to the right. Use this as a jumping off point and float into the crevice in the canyon wall to grab another Symbol.

Underground Passage

Symbol 1

Near the beginning of the area, you'll come across a series of small tubes strewn about the ground. There is one that is propped up diagonally against another. Inside of this one is the first Symbol of the Underground Passage.

Symbol 2

Just past the first Symbol is a large open area with cloth ribbons that resemble seaweed. Straight ahead is a tube with an opening that houses another Symbol.

Symbol 3

The next area tasks you with floating up using more cloth ribbons. Near the end of this chamber are a handful of jelly-fish creatures. The Symbol is located on the one that is floating near the top.

Symbol 4

The final Symbol of the Underground Passage can be found in the tunnel patrolled by the two Guardians. Navigate the area down the left-hand side, and you'll spot the Symbol just before the final slope of the area.

Temple

Temple Symbol 1

As soon as you use the first mural to raise the level of magic in the chamber, turn around and you'll spot the Symbol on the central tower just above you.

Temple Symbol 2

Once you've raised the magic high enough to release the cloth whale, ride him and keep an eye on the central tower. You'll soon spot an opening that contains another Symbol.

Temple Symbol 3

Once you free the cloth whale, enter its chamber to find the Temple's lone Ancient Glyph. Hidden behind a curtain in this room is another Symbol.

Temple Symbol 4

The final Symbol in the Temple is located in a room along the edge of the main chamber. Wait until you've raised the magic fully before you grab it. It's in a room about 1/2 the way up, roughly level with the jellyfish, and directly above the entrance hall where you came in.
